Wasn't that James Jones being referred to rather than Luke James?
James Jones has gone .
But would guess Luke James won't be here much longer
Luke James has gone too Boylie

Nice! We're now waiting for the departure of Josh Gordon. Won't be long, hopefully?

Do we not think that Flash fits in with style of play PW says he wants? That harassing, chasing down, full of energy type of player, or have I misunderstood what the brief?

"That harassing, chasing down, full of energy type of player"

The type of player that runs around like a headless chicken with no firm objective in mind?
Who does f**k all with the ball at his feet? Yes. It's Josh Gordon, folks :lol:

Bit Harsh mate, I like Flash & you never know he might shine brighter under Wild & with a more attacking formation, He has all the attributes but we all know he needs to score more & I hope he dies just that
Which attributes are you referring to? :?
Glad to hear that he scored today but I still don't rate the geezer.
Difference of opinion but his pace terrifies defenders, Great leap in him, workrate up with the best at the club (last season) He was our leading tackler was the? so grafts, But obviously strikers get rated on goals per games & this lets him down massively so let’s hope ( if he’s in the gaffers plans ) they coach that into him & he bags more & he certainly won’t be a main striker this term, but a good weapon out wide or to bring on to run a tiered defence ragged etc.

The first line of defence comes from the attackers and he was the best of the lot at closing down full backs and blocking the start of attacks forcing throw-ins deep in the oppos half. We all know a higher percentage of goals are scored when the ball is turned over in the defending thirds. He gives up chances to seize on those opportunities.
